C: ACCESS DENIED

Hello:At start up my computer now has an error that states Norton Protection: Attention! Access Denied, drive C: It is Dell running on Windwos xp. Do you have any idea what this error could be from? I have looked everywhere for a solution. At first I thought this was from my Norton Antivirus but after reinstalling that, it still appears.
